150 calorie Tuna Salad

     

     What a GREAT way to spend 150 calories !!!  A simple Tuna salad pouch by Starkist only has 80 calories and 18 gms of protein !!!  Add 2 Tablespoons of a light Vinaigrette on top of mixed greens and you have a low cal plate of deliciousness  :)

Torching Calories

Hot Tip of the day !!!  I just bought a new Incline Treadmill and have been running at an Incline of only 3 degrees and am burning about 50% more calories than when running FLAT !!!  Its not even that much more difficult to run at an Incline~instead of burning 600 calories in an hour I am burning almost 900 calories in an hour !!!  Totally worth a meager 3% change ... BIG PAYOFF !!!  ;)

Savory Speedy Salmon Salad!!!

     This is a perfect salad to throw together in 5 minutes for around 200 calories and 14/15 gms of protein! Use your pre made salad from the frig of Romaine, baby spinach leaves, cilantro, carrots and green onion and put on a plate. Top with Chicken of the Sea Salmon, 4 Wheat Thins crushed up, and ONE tablespoon Brianna's Blue Cheese dressing!!! So much flavor you will enjoy every bite ;)

Creative Cottage Cheese !!!

     What a perfect dairy to incorporate into your daily life !!!  Have you tried combining a Half Cup of Low Fat Cottage Cheese with a chopped apple, or a cup of Grapes or even Pineapple!?  For about 200 calories and 12 grams of Protein you can have a delicious Healthy Snack !!!  Its your option to add the cinnamon and Stevia, but the addition makes it truly remarkable !!!  ;)

Who needs Butter!?

     Who needs BUTTER !?  Not this girl !!!  I swirled together a half Tablespoon of Greek Cream Cheese ( or any low fat version will do) and a finely chopped Strawberry to top my Homemade Oatmeal Muffin !!!  All for about 15 calories and a gram of protein~not  a bad start to a morning muffin  ;)

Get your Check ups !!! :)

Just another reason to avoid a high sugar diet ... THE DENTIST !!!!  I get my check-ups every 6 months and I HATE HATE HATE going to the Dentist, ...even though I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Dentist !!!  Daily brushing, flossing and an Oral rinse followed by check ups twice a year is a good practice for a Healthy mouth and a Healthy you !!!  No cavities for this chick today !!!  Its a good day  ;)

Dinner in a Jiffy !!! ;)

Hottest tip out there is the "Steam in the bag" fresh veggies in the produce department!!! So fast and easy, not to mention the perfect compliment to your meat dish! Even though I'm opposed to prepackaged foods, life dictates times that it is necessary and still better than fast foods!!! Butterball puts out a few Dinner meats that aren't too bad and good to have on hand for those busy nights and cooks in 7 minutes~ between the meat and vegetables your dinner can be readying 10 minutes! And as I've said before, make sure every Sunday you prepare a large bowl of Romaine, Baby Spinach leaves, Peppers, Cilantro, Baby Carrots and Green Onion. You can use it all week with out any wilting or moisture forming, and the perfect way to balance out a healthy meal! Enjoy a somewhat healthy meal in a jiffy with VERY LITTLE clean up afterwards ... And that's the best part !!! ;)
